A man with a concealed carry permit held two people at gunpoint Tuesday after the duo rammed him on Highway 29 and then began beating him in a road rage incident, according to police.

Wausau officers and a deputy from the Marathon County Sheriff's Department were called at about 1 p.m. to a road rage hit-and-run crash on Highway 29 near Highway O. A 49-year-old man from Appleton reported the SUV he was driving was rammed from behind by a van he had passed on the highway, and a 911 dispatcher directed the caller to pull off the road into the Menards parking lot on Wausau's west side to await officers.
